"A tired Suzu follows my lead as we head down the stairs and into the hallway, a great yawn escaping as I make my way to the living room."
"Opening the door reveals that we're not the first to arrive. With her body hidden by the recliner's back, all that's to be seen are two grey-clad arms lazily hanging over the sides."
mik "You okay?"
tsu "Life is pain. Leave me to my fate."
"Her dreary voice is nothing short of pathetic to behold."
suz "What have you been told about all-nighters?"
tsu "Internal compiler error: segmentation fault. Internal compiler error: segmentation fault. Internal compiler error..."
mik "Okay, okay. We'll leave you to mope in peace."
"She repeats herself a couple more times as we leave her aura of depression to get something for breakfast. I think this might be the first time I've seen her this frazzled."
"The moment we enter the kitchen, I freeze. The very last person I wanted to see stands before us, her cold eyes locked to mine as she lowers her cup of coffee to the counter."
suz "Good morning."
"Suzu's timid voice draws the attention of her mother, giving me a chance to breathe as her expression lightens ever so slightly."
mot "Good morning, Suzu. Have you had your morning tablets, yet?"
suz "I'll have them with breakfast."
mot "Good girl. Don't forget to wash them down with something; I know you keep dry-swallowing them."
suz "Yes, mom."
mot "I'll be off to work then. You'll have Tsubasa to watch over you."
suz "I'm not a child any more, you know. I don't need adult supervision."
"Her mother takes one last sip of coffee before depositing her cup and taking her keys from the counter, Suzu's protests falling on deaf ears. We both step aside to let her through, sharing sense of relief that what might have been a confrontation has turned out to be nothing."
"Looks like we're doing the whole 'forget anything was ever said' routine, keeping up the appearance of normality. As much as I'm grateful for avoiding an argument, it's obvious that this is only a stay of execution."
"Just as I'm about to get breakfast and do my best to forget the whole experience, her sharp voice calls out from behind."
mot "Miura, would you come with me for a moment?"
"I don't even bother hiding the slumping of my shoulders."

"Her fancy grey car is right there, keys clutched in her hand as she stands with her arms crossed. If only I could will her to just get inside and drive off, leaving us in peace."
"Instead, I feel like I'm on trial. Her ice cold stare is obviously intended to assert her dominance over me, and it's working. This feels more like an interrogation than any kind of cordial chat between she and her daughter's love interest."
mot "Before this goes any further, I want to make something perfectly clear to you."
mik "Yeah?"
mot "Make the most of your time here. This is the last time you'll set foot in this house, after all."
mik "But-!'
mot "I'd suggest you don't talk back to me. You should be glad you're still here at all."
"So that's how this is going to be played. It's disappointing, of course; I liked Suzu's family a lot, and now they've come to roundly reject even the sight of me. That said, the silver lining is that she's taking this out on me rather than Suzu."
"At least, for now. Just the thought of me being the cause of her mother being angry at her makes me feel sick, so if this is what it takes, so be it."
"She evidently takes my absentminded rubbing of my arm as submission to her demands, pressing the keyfob to disable the car alarm and beginning to get inside."
mik "This isn't fair..."
"My thought freezes as I realise what I've mumbled. Why do I always have to have the last word? Why can't I just keep my mouth shut?"
"My worst concerns are realised as her mother abruptly stops getting into the car and steps back out, rounding on me with a face of burning resentment."
mot "Don't you dare talk to me about what's fair."
"Shit, what do I do? I can't simply say sorry. I know damn well that I wouldn't be able to force the words out, an apology for this being against every instinct I have. If I take her up on her argument though, there's every chance I'll be thrown out and make things far worse for Suzu."
"I've never had a problem with telling teachers or other authority figures to go stuff themselves if I felt they were being unfair, even back in elementary school. Maybe that was because I was a badly-behaved little brat, but that's beside the point."
"But right now, all I can do is stand mortified, unable to stand up against this woman before me. Not out of concern for myself, but for another."
"The sound of the front door opening behind us draws our attention, Tsubasa's figure coming into sight."
tsu "Hey, mom...?"
mot "Yes?"
tsu "Could you pick up some milk on the way home? I'd text dad, but he'll just forget."
"Her gaze shifts to me, the momentum from her previous anger having been abruptly brought to a halt."
"The game being played is perfectly obvious, but it's clear that she wants to keep this directed at me right now given that she dragged me out here just before she left for work."
"The way she closes her eyes and reopens then with an entirely different disposition should unsettle me, but right now I'm just relieved that it's all over."
mot "Milk. Got it."
"With that, she lowers herself into the car while doing her best not to acknowledge my presence."
"The relief of seeing her car back out of the driveway and disappear down the street is palpable. I waste no time in turning on the ball of my heel and heading straight back inside."
mik "Thanks. I owe you one."
tsu "And don't you forget it."
# Timeskip
"With Tsubasa having retreated to her room and Hisao finally awake, the three of us settle in on the couch as the console slowly boots up. Miyu quietly lays on the recliner, content to sleep the day away."
"Seated in the middle of us, with me to the right and Hisao to the left, it's Suzu who has command of the controller. With the game already chosen and inserted, it starts up in short measure."
his "Ah, this. So you're into RPGs, then?"
"She gives a nod."
suz "You?"
his "I mostly just played at the local arcades, like before."
suz "It shows."
his "Well at least I'm good at something beyond schoolwork."
his "What about you, Miki?"
mik "Eh, I kinda had a deprived childhood when it comes to this sort of thing. It still blows my mind how good they look these days."
his "And you're the one calling me old-fashioned."
mik "Hey, at least I wasn't born 50 years old."
suz "You just got stuck as a 10 year old, instead."
"The smartass comment earns her a stuck-out tongue."
"She finally gets past the menus and starts running around the fictional school building once the game loads, picking up from where she left off with remarkable ease."
"As she runs up to a girl in the game and starts some dialogue, I can't help but comment. I'm kinda curious what her type is when it comes to women, after all."
mik "I like her."
suz "Who?"
mik "Her. The redhead chick. She's cool."
suz "She's kind of bossy..."
mik "Hisao, second opinion?"
his "I'm with Miki on this one, for once."
suz "Hmph."
mik "So who's your favourite? Please not the hangdog mopey girl."
"Suzu glowers at me, but it isn't unexpected. I just chose the one who resembled her the most, after all."
"Oh yeah, I meant to find out her type. I ended up indirectly teasing her, instead. Whoops."
"Hisao just gives a smile, content to let us pick at each other."
his "So what's there to do around here, anyway? Seems like a pretty nice place."
suz "There's a ridiculous number of restaurants. A museum, as well."
mik "Don't forget the beach."
suz "That too. Did you pack swimwear?"
his "Yeah."
mik "Only because I reminded him at the last minute."
his "You didn't have to mention that..."
"As we yak away on the couch, a very particular smell enters the room. The kind that irritates your nose and throat just enough to demand your attention. The slightly acrid edge it has makes it unmistakable."
"Being the first to apparently catch it, I turn around to see the source. Sure enough, Suzu's sister enters with a cigarette perched in her mouth, shoving the packet and lighter into her hoodie pocket."
"The attention of the others is finally drawn as she inhales sharply and takes the cigarette from her mouth, blowing a thin whisp of smoke past her lips. Her gaze is at nothing in particular, just happy to foul up the room as she lets off steam."
mik "Taking a break?"
tsu "Finished. Thank God."
"Replacing the stick back in her mouth, she retrieves a a thumb-drive from her pocket and flicks into the air before snatching it with her hand, apparently quite pleased with herself."
suz "Mom and dad will kill you if they find out."
tsu "Snitches get stitches."
suz "The smell. It'll hang around if you do that inside."
"The warning gives Tsubasa pause, too flushed in her victory over her project to consider that fact."
"She stares at her sister for a moment before giving a displeased puff in her direction, with Suzu going back to her game in response."
his "What's all this for, anyway?"
tsu "Uni project. I know just enough programming to keep getting stuck with the job during group assignments and projects."
his "You're a student?"
tsu "Yeah, mechanical engineering."
his "That's cool."
"The statement fills her with pride, her smile making the cigarette between her lips angle sharply upwards."
tsu "You hear that, Suzu? I'm cool."
suz "At least someone thinks you are."
"Suzu just keeps tapping away at the controller, launching some loud group attack on a boss character. She really is good at shutting out discussion she's not interested in."
"Used to her sister's antics, Tsubasa instead turns to Hisao once more."
tsu "Hmm... you'd be into robots and stuff, right? Tell you what, how about you come see what we're working on?"
his "Seriously? That'd be okay?"
tsu "It isn't exactly top-secret military stuff we're doing, you know. Either of you two up for it?"
suz "I think I'll be fine."
mik "Neeeeerds."
tsu "Tough crowd. Get your stuff and we'll be off, Nakai. No point hanging around for these two."
his "Sure, I'll be right out."
"Passing by the recliner on the way, she gives Miyu a much-appreciated rub on the head before leaving. For his part, Hisao jumps off the couch and goes to grab his phone and wallet from the guest room."
"As he returns and heads towards outside, he briefly stops to give us a wave of goodbye. I pucker my lips and make kissing motions to tease him in response, earning an obscene gesture before he disappears out the door."
"Come to think of it, he never used to do that before. Maybe I'm starting to rub off on him."
mik "Those two sure are getting along."
suz "She'd be a good influence on him. Smoking aside."
"Can't say I'm a fan of the habit either. That sort of thing used to be popular back home, but then again, it's not like there was much else do out in the sticks."
"Suzu's attention is wholly focused on the television in front her, right now going through some dialogue section as two characters gossip between themselves. I kind wish she was playing a shooter, or anything else that was more exciting to watch. At least this has some cute girls, I suppose."
"In a move that's probably not all that subtle, I let my left arm drop from the couch and around Suzu's other shoulder. She pauses, albeit briefly, but continues on after a badly hidden glance towards me."
"A little smile fights for its life on her face, eventually managing to eke out a fragile existence as I hold her to my side. It proves infectious, with my own grin soon widening."
suz "Sorry."
mik "What's wrong?"
suz "You'd prefer me to be more affectionate, wouldn't you?"
mik "I wouldn't exactly say no, but you are what you are. If you're not the touchy-feely type, that's fine."
"She falls silent, the game's music as a battle starts being the only sound in the room."
mik "We both know that's bullshit, don't we?"
mik "He's fine with it, you know. Hisao, that is."
suz "I know. I just..."
"As she looks down, I become increasingly doubtful of my reasoning. I'm sure being... that way inclined plays a part, but even if she liked men, her distrust of others would still be there."
"I don't like that fact at all. I know that if she doesn't deal with it at some point, it's going to take over her entire life. That's a large part of why I've tried to work it out of her, after all."
"But even if it's incredibly selfish, I can't help but treasure, just a little, how she's opened up to me. She chose me as the only person she's willing to show herself to. Wouldn't anyone be thankful for that?"
suz "What happened earlier?"
mik "With your mother?"
"She gives a nod. That's the very last topic I wanted to talk with her about, let alone now of all times. The more I think about it, the deeper the barbs go from what she told me, but I can't let Suzu bear that burden. It's not her fault."
"Doing my best to gin up a lie on short notice, I shrug my shoulders."
mik "Just going off at me about being a lout. Could've been worse."
"Suzu glances at me, but seems to take the statement at face value as she goes back to her game."
"Whether to reassure myself or her, I bend down and give an affectionate peck on her cheek."
"Her reaction isn't quite what I'd expected; with her fingers slipping off the buttons and joystick, she looks up to me with a hopeful, almost yearning expression. It takes some effort for her to maintain eye contact, forcing herself to look me in the eyes."
"My heart skips a beat as I begin to lean in, my last sight being of her rosy cheeks and delicate lips before I close my eyes."
"And so, I press my lips to those of Suzu, the controller falling to the floor with a thud."
"As we kiss, my lust finally gets the better of me as I push my tongue forward, passing my own lips and pushing into Suzu's."
"Suzu's body jerks as I make the move, but her hesitation soon melts as she responds in kind, her tongue moving around inside my mouth and pressing against my own tongue. She doesn't seem to really know what to do with it, her innocence only spurring me to excite her more and more."
"As I press my mouth against hers, I can feel Suzu's breath tickling my face and her body heaving from the desire running through it. Her controller lies on the floor forgotten as her hands hold me, one on my side and the other to my cheek."
"The two of us part with almost identical timing, our faces flushed and breathing heavy."
"I can feel my heart tighten as I look at her face. The way her eyes look up at my own, loose hairs hanging as she pants in excitement through those slightly open lips, entirely too taken with the situation to bother trying to compose herself. It's surprising how little it takes to make her completely flustered, and all the more endearing."
"I push myself on her once more, the two of us making out without a care for the outside world. I didn't think someone like her would find this sort of thing fun, but then again, it isn't the first time she's surprised me."
"My hand on her waist slips downward, taking in the feeling of her leg as it slowly moves along her thigh. Attempting to sate my lust by rubbing up and down her thigh only makes me more excited, as does the weak whimper escaping from her mouth."
"I want her. I want all of her. I want to take this girl for myself."
"Not content with her cute leg, my hand slips from the top of her thigh to the inside, my heart beating faster and faster as my hand ever so slowly slides further upwards, my tongue chasing her own as she desperately attempts to escape for so much as a breath."
"The tips of my fingers disappear under her dress, brushing against her thin underwear, the feeling of everything underneath clear to the touch."
"A sharp inhalation gives me pause, suddenly breaking me out of my relentless advance on her. Sensing something's up, I pull back my adventurous hand and withdraw from my kiss."
"Suzu's body is completely frozen, one hand on the couch supporting her body, the other raised defensively in front of her as she leans back. Her eyes flit to mine and then away, unable to keep contact for more than a second."
"I open my mouth to speak, but once again find myself unable to find words. All I can do is frantically stuff down my desire as I try to work out how to settle the panicked rabbit before me."
mik "Sorry, I didn't..."
"Didn't what? There are a lot of things I didn't do. While she was obviously content with making out, I let myself become consumed by my libido, pushing myself on her without a word. She's never done this before, and hell, tends to skirt the mere mention of anything remotely sexual in conversation."
"I try to force a grin to lighten the mood, but as I do so, I notice the telltale signs that doing so will be entirely pointless."
"Sure enough, the muscles in Suzu's face relax and her eyelids close, her arm buckling soon after. Suddenly limp as a rag, she flops backward onto the couch like a lifeless doll, one arm over her stomach as the other haphazardly drops over the side."
"Well. That's that."
"I let my head droop in defeat, looking at her unconscious body for a while before picking up the long-forgotten controller. As if to make the situation as awkward as possible, the dog decides now is the best time to start snoring loudly, reminding us of her presence."
"Sitting the thing in my lap in practiced fashion, I use my stump to carefully move the left stick and operate the buttons with my hand, managing to, eventually, save the game. As it writes to the memory card, a movement from the corner of my eye draws my eyes from the television."
"With her muscle control returned to her, Suzu brings her arm over her face, hiding her eyes underneath. She doesn't say a word, nor make any other movement."
"Bereft of anything to say that could make the mood any better, I decide to just avoid the topic completely."
mik "Mind if I choose the next game?"
suz "Do as you want."
# Timeskip
"Having settled in for the night, Suzu lies at the end of the bed on her stomach watching TV. The small flatscreen, perched on a low dresser at the end of the room, is unsurprisngly tuned to some late-night animated series."
"It's kind of cute how she gets so taken with whatever she's doing. From studying to games, she really does take everything in her life seriously."
"As for me, I just lay on my back with my head propped up on the bedhead, arms bent back providing a makeshift cushion for my head. The show's interesting enough to hold my attention, even if it is a bit artsy for my liking."
mik "Aren't you tired? It's getting pretty late."
suz "If you want to sleep, I can just record it."
mik "That's not what I'm asking."
suz "I'm fine."
"Annoyed with her brushing off my concern for her, I read out with my foot and poke Suzu's butt with my big toe."
"Her reaction is both immediate and startling, a loud sound coming from her that'd be best described as a squeak as she suddenly lurches forwards and topples off the bed as she twists around and scrambles for a handhold."
"The ordeal ends with a thud as she crashes onto the floor, the silence afterwards making me more than a little concerned."
mik "Hey, Suzu? You okay down there?"
"The top half of her head slowly rises from behind the end of the bed, her annoyed eyes just visible as she glares at me over the sheets. I just smile."
mik "C'mon, don't be like that."
"My remark only serves to make Suzu furrow her brow even further. I guess she really is mad."
"I doubt it's from my poking her, though. Her reaction was completely out of proportion, making me think that she had something else on her mind. Without her having told me what's bothering her, all I can do is take a wild stab at it."
mik "Look, I'm sorry about what happened earlier. I didn't mean to come onto you that fast."
"The side of my mouth twitches as I hope I've latched onto the right problem, but her sighing shows that I've missed the mark."
"Sitting her chin on the sheets and laying her arms out in front of her, she looks to me with a resigned expression, having given up on letting me finding the answer myself."
suz "Why do you insist on coddling me like a child? It's bad enough when my parents do it."
mik "Huh?"
suz "This morning. I heard what mom told you."
mik "I was going to tell you."
"Suzu looks at me with suspicion."
mik "I mean it! It just didn't feel like the right time."
suz "Why does everyone think I'm so fragile?"
mik "Well, I mean... that's not totally without reason."
"I should not have said that. I so should not have said that."
"As she stands up, looking at me with a dark face, I quickly sit up and try to think of something to cover my ass. It's true, though; someone like me has trouble accounting for her innocence, and her condition. It hurts a little to think how someone more laid back and thoughtful would've been such a better fit for her than I."
"Before I can mumble any sort of half-hearted apology, Suzu does the last thing I expected. Standing at the foot of the bed, she begins to undo the buttons of her pajama top."
"Taken completely off guard, and perhaps a little swayed by wanting her to continue, all I can do is watch as she slowly and silently undoes button after button."
"Upon unfastening the last, she shrugs off her top and lets it drop to the ground, revealing her petite breasts. My heart is practically in my mouth, her stripping evidently not yet finished as she works off her pajama bottoms with her panties."
"With every inch of her bared before me, she stands simply with her arms hanging by her sides. Despite her blushing, she looks to be with an expression of sincere disapproval, is if to silently scold me."
"This is the same girl who had a cataplexy attack when I tried to come onto her, right? I've seen her body before, in showers and changing rooms, but she has an essence of eroticism around her that she never had before."
mik "Suzu..."
suz "You want to do this with me, right?"
"All I can do is gulp. Knowing the way she is, it's totally impossible that she's ever done this before. That in itself makes me admire her gumption in doing such a thing."
"As the seconds tick by, I begin to notice the cracks in her facade. The way she fiddles with her fingers, her uneven breathing, the way her cheeks become ever more flushed. In spite of all that, she still forces herself to keep eye contact."
mik "If you're not ready, I don't want to-"
suz "I am ready. I want to do this with you, Miki."
"Ah, that's what her face reminds me of. A petulant child, annoyed that her latest petty wish isn't being obeyed. A smile spreads across my face as I realise that she's acting just the way she always does."
"Suzu's a spoiled child, after all. Always had been. That's not necessarily a bad thing, though; it's what's given her such a pigheaded nature, after all."
"That's what makes me sure that Suzu isn't just offering herself up to me. She wouldn't push herself so hard if she didn't want to do this, and even if she may be more modest than I about her body, that doesn't mean she lacks her own desire for sex. It's surely played on her mind before."
suz "What are you smiling about?"
mik "You really need to lighten up, you know that?"
"She flowers into a full blush as the facade falls, looking away to hide her embarrassment for taking this so seriously compared to me."
"I take the opportunity to take my own clothes off, her interest piqued as my tank top comes off and gets thrown to the floor. She has trouble avoiding staring at my breasts as I work off my shorts, my panties following both onto the floor in short measure."
"I can't help but imagine how I'd be run out of the house if her parents discovered us naked like this, indulging in the very last thing they'd want me doing with their precious daughter. Here we are, though, taking in the sight of each other's bodies."
mik "You're beautiful, Suzu."
"The words are as sincere as could be. Her smooth, lithe body is a harsh contrast to my own, her complexion pale compared to my tanned skin. She isn't especially curvateous, nor mature looking by any definition, but she does have an unpretentious charm to her dainty figure."
"Not that I'm ignorant of what Suzu sees in me. I suppose I should acknowledge the bonuses of puberty as well as the minuses, as having a body I like looking at myself is always a pleasure."
"I reach out to the bashful girl bidding her to join me. She promptly does so, clambering onto the bed and pressing her lips to mine in the most brief of kisses."
"It's not her kiss that sets me aflutter, though. Rather, the way she reaches out and brings her hand under my cheek, brushing it with her fingers. The love in her eyes is unmistakable, leaving me utterly speechless. I've never seen someone look at me like this before."
"I must have a really dumb smile on my face. With a wonderful warmth flowing through me, all I can do is stroke her hair in response."
suz "I love you, Miki."
mik "I know."
"I try to grin and play it off, but she's making it obvious that she wants me to say those words. Suzu's really got me wrapped around her little finger to make me the bashful one."
mik "I love you too."
"I follow up by pushing my chin forwards just little. Suzu takes the hint as she gingerly closes her eyes, my mouth pressing to hers in short measure."
"An affectionate peck is followed by a much more adult kiss, our desire for each other being indulged. She moves to pull her face away, but I gently bite her lip before going on to press mine to hers once more."
"Only when I've had my fill do I let her go, her face flushed and breathing heavily."
suz "Miki..."
"It's obvious that there's no going back now. As she looks to me with those dreamy eyes, I bring my hand to her side and guide her into my lap."
"Content to follow my lead, nuzzles the side of her face against mine as I hold my arms around her. The smell of shampoo plays on my nose, the feeling of her soft skin against mine filling me with lust."
"The girl just sighs as I bring my mouth to the base of her neck, meekly tilting her head to allow me. The television ahead blares away as I lick at her skin, still warm from her bath. As she starts moving about in my lap, I realise she's taking in the feeling of my breasts against her back."
"I almost laugh, her awkward attempts to push past her prudishness making me hold her all the tighter."
"Hoping that getting her more excited will help her loosen up, I move my hand over her breast, at first cupping it and feeling out its contours before gently kneading it. She whimpers a little, but the way she starts to settle down seems to show it's working."
"Tweaking at her nipple starts to excite even me, a moan escaping her lips showing that she enjoys it just as much. Slowly but surely she begins to let herself go, letting me play with her supple body as I wish."
"As she begins to fidget about, the sight of the area between Suzu's legs becomes inviting. I've never pleasured a girl before, only able to go by what I enjoy doing with myself. I have little choice but to learn, though, as my hand begins to inch down her stomach."
"She goes quiet out of anxiety as my fingers slide downwards, gently brushing through her lower hair before reaching my goal."
"Her breath and muscles tense catches as my fingers slide between her legs, the mere fact I'm touching her down there making my own heart skip a beat. I desperately want to avoid hurting Suzu, but my own lusts are starting to get the better of me."
"I begin to delicately stroke her nub, being as delicate as I possibly can. Her excitement has already left my fingers faintly moist, evidently already taken by the experience."
"Her quiet nature makes it terribly hard to guage if she's enjoying this. Worried that it's a sign, I adjust my motions and begin pressing a little harder, eventually moving my fingers further afield to stimulate other parts as well."
"A momentary quiver shooting through her body almost makes me stop in fear that I've hurt her, but it passes as soon as it came. Her hips begin to move and fidget, her ecstasy slowly escalating."
mik "Is this right?"
suz "Don't speak..."
"I smile at her breathless words as she squirms in my lap."
"Suzu's breaths becoming faster and moans more frequent, a slight sweat forming on her skin. I quickly pat her a few times to excite her further before returning to rubbing, my motions settling on a speed and motion. With her body beginning to heave and tighten in my grasp, I can only guess she's nearing the end."
suz "Miki... Nnnnnn..."
"She can't close her mouth any more for her frantic breathing, her attention wholly focused on the welling ecstasy within her. Little by little she gets further to the edge, her moaning getting increasingly impossible to suppress."
"As her thighs begin to quiver, it should only take a little more, and..."
suz "Ah... Aaaaahn!"
"Suzu's body tenses unmistakably as her breath catches, her voice going silent as she desperately clutches at the peaking climax, every sense overtaken by the rush of euphoria."
"She clutches frantically at that wonderful feeling as it begins to wane, but inevitably and ever so slowly... it leaves her."
"Suzu's body slumps in my arms as the excitement ebbs away, a little effort being needed to keep her upright in my arms. I give her an affectionate peck on the cheek, satisfied that she seems to have enjoyed herself."
"It's so rare that I get to see her with her guard completely lowered, but today, at this moment, I can finally say she's given in. What I saw when it did could only be called one thing."
"Interested to see what she has to say for herself, I tilt my head over her shoulder to try and catch a glimpse of her face. It earns me a sideways glance, her look one of both physical and emotional exhaustion."
mik "Thank you, Suzu. I'm glad I got to do this with you."
"She just nuzzles her head aganst mine, but I don't mind. That's all the answer I need, after all."
"As the afterglow begins to wear off, she twists and kisses me once more, her hands taking weak hold of my shoulders."
mik "Suzu...?"
suz "You want to as well, don't you?"
mik "You don't have to-"
"What am I saying? Of course she isn't forcing herself. She wants to. I can only guess how long she's yearned for this moment."
"Playing with her has left me excited, I can admit that much. Making the best of it, I reach out and bring my hand around Suzu's head, drawing her in for another kiss."
"She she moves down to kiss my collar, I uncross my legs and let myself sit back while supporting myself with my hand and stump. Suzu can take this at her pace, her gaze already focused on my body rather than my eyes."
"My chest is the next area of her exploration, one hand supporting her as the other feels out and kneads my left breast. She brings her mouth towards it, sucking and licking before playing at my nipple with her tongue. The sight of her combined with the pleasure of her teasing at it makes me giggle."
suz "Is this... wrong?"
mik "I was just thinking how curious you look."
mik "It feels nice, Suzu. You shouldn't worry so much."
"She hesitates, before pressing her lips to my breast as a parting goodbye. The feeling of her spit evaporating off is wonderful, the cool sensation a contrast to the warm summer air."
"Next is my stomach, her face held so close that she might almost be touching it as she lays down."
"She hesitates a moment before moving downward, not from nerves, but as if to engrave its feeling onto her mind as she runs her hand over it. It's not my most feminine feature, admittedly, but my toned body is one of the few things I've manage to keep from my days before Yamaku. That she seems to like it makes me a little glad."
"Her hand brushes against my untidy hair, stopping before going any further. My only answer to her questioning eyes, as if she needed permission to advance any further, is to grin."
"She takes a moment to get her bearings, before reluctantly moving her head forwards. Even the air from her nose brushing against my hair and crotch is enough to make me shudder, the area already covered in a heavy dew from our messing about."
"Starting with a mere kiss before beginning in earnest, she begins to timidly and slowly lap between my legs, her hands resting on the inside of my thighs."
"Her nervousness about whether she's doing everything correctly makes it hard to even look at her. I suppose I shouldn't complain, given that I was thinking just the same way."
"I just give an indulgent smile as she goes, her eyes eventually closing as she becomes more comfortable. I don't think she really knows what she's doing, beyond what she might have seen in some lewd media or another, but it feels nice in any case. I'm not sure how much time passes as I let myself drift in this intoxicating sensation, nor do I care."
"A suddenly piercing feeling draws me out of my trance, Suzu's fingers having become abruptly adventurous as she burrows two inside of me."
suz "Sorry, is this...?"
mik "Just keep going."
"She doesn't look wholly convinced, but decides to go along with it. I can't decide whether the feeling is good or bad as her fingers haphazardly move inside of me, the occasional touched nerve giving me an involuntary giggle she goes."
"It might be in the most reluctant of ways, but the fact she's willing to try and experiment in making me feel as best she can makes me a little happy."
"She pulls them out after her curiosity is sated, my back arching as a wave of pleasure suddenly overcomes me. Her tongue finds a damn good motion, and the thankfully manages to catch it."
mik "Suzu... More..."
"My entire body begins to move and shiver in anticipation, pleasure emanating from that one spot."
"The look in Suzu's eyes, a mixture of embarrassment, passion, and curiosity only makes it all the harder to hold on. I can feel her tongue on by nub, her lips covering mine, hands pressing against my legs as they begin to shake. More... I just want to feel Suzu more..."
"I'm close, I can feel it just dancing on the edge of my grasp. Just a little further.... Just a little..."
mik "Aaah!"
"As if having fallen into a deep ocean, the world drops away as a surge of pleasure washes over my entire body and overwhelms every sense. For a precious few seconds I bask in the bliss running through me, my muscles clenching as if to hold tight to that most wonderful feeling."
"But as the seconds pass, so too does the rush of emotion. I desperately clutch at the last dregs of pleasure as they begin to leave me, savouring what little I can as normality begins to seep in."
"The sweat against my skin begins to sting, the cold air around my bare legs being the next feeling to enter my consciousness. Every breath is a laboured effort, and with my muscles feeling unbearably weak, I let myself fall back onto the bed."
"My view of the ceiling lasts only a moment, with Suzu's face taking up my sight as she clambers on top of me. Her face, as always, is that inscrutable stoic expression."
"I just give a dumb smile as I reach up, brushing her dishevelled hair as a few hairs hang past her face. As much as I might try, I can't quite find the words I want to say."
"Well, whatever. Words were overrated anyway."
